Manage episode 396592687 series 3550613
Is it genuinely possible to step away in our always-on digital world?
We explore how cultural differences impact our ability to switch off, discuss France's approach to legislating being email-free outside of work hours. But, there's more to it. We also delve into the idea that sometimes staying connected to work can be a coping mechanism, especially when faced with less-than-ideal family environments during the holidays. From legal frameworks to personal choices, this episode unpacks the complexities of finding work-life balance during festive times.
Join us as we unravel the realities, challenges, and unexpected nuances of taking a real break from work during holidays. Tune in now for an insightful exploration of this modern workplace dilemma.
